I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning

Bright Eyes, who recently performed on the same bill as R.E.M., John Fogerty, and Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band on the Vote For Change tour, will release two new albums in January 2005.

Frontman Conor Oberst and his ever-changing band will release two distinct discs on January 25, 2005. I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning and Digital Ash in a Digital Urn were recorded back to back in New York City.

I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning is a country-tinged collection of acoustic tracks, and includes guest vocals from Emmylou Harris and My Morning Jacket's Jim James. Digital Ash in a Digital Urn is a full-band record which includes a cameo from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Nick Zinner.
